While Wambach and Huffman have been rumored to be an item for some time, they never officially announced they were dating.

Nor had Wambach ever officially come out as a lesbian.

Huffman only did so this year, as she quietly announced she was partnering with the LGBT website Athlete Ally.

‘I dream of a world full of equal chances and opportunities as well as treatment and I am proud to be an athlete ally,’ Huffman said. ‘Discrimination based upon race, gender, and sexual orientation should have no place in the world, especially in sports because I believe it is place where everybody belongs. I am thrilled to be an ally and stand up for individuals like me in the lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender (LGBT) community.’

Tropical: Only close friends and family of the couple were invited to the Hawaii ceremony, which took place at the Villas at Po¿ipu Kai on the island of Kauai
